A related, really excellent book: Atlas of Remote Islands by Judith Schalansky. I see that the hardcover is now $66, which is unfortunate because that's the way to read it. It's beautiful!

Thank you for the tip! I just bought the (german) original which is fortunately still in print and very affordable as a hard cover.

I came here to recommend it – I also got it in German. One of those beautiful books, where you're thankful for the printing industry.

Worth a try to see if your local library has it. Thanks fully mine does, placed a hold.
